Heat
-
Actual saunas are extremely warm, and they cause the body to sweat profusely. This effect is heightened when you wear a sauna suit. Because you are encased in the suit from ankles to neck, your body heat has nowhere to go, so you become very hot and sweaty.
Detox
-
The skin acts a medium to detox impurities from the body through sweating. The excess sweating created by wearing the suit not only enhances the elimination of toxins and free radicals, but also aids in weight loss. This enhanced sweating can also boost the body's immunity system.

Dangers
-
When you exercise, your body temperature rises. Your skin sweats so as to cool down your body. But when you are wearing the sauna suit, this cannot happen. So for that reason, you run the risk of heat stroke while wearing the sauna suit. That is why it is very important to stay well hydrated while using one.
Exercising
-
In some instances, people want to lose a lot of weight in a hurry. This is especially the case with wrestlers and mixed martial artists. Oftentimes, they need to "cut weight" to be able to fight in a certain match. To do this, they will wear often sauna suits while exercising. Sometimes they will take it to the extreme and roll an exercise bike into a sauna and wear a sauna suit while riding it. In such a scenario, it is vitally important to get enough hydration.
